so what ur trying to say here is that we have hope :lol:
\
ive started my build already. what are you waiting for. Its gunna take me some time since im getting married in a few months but next year, she will be a little faster.
ive already installed my 3.91 lsd and 2" lowering springs the other day.
Ill be picking up m3 cams and a m50 intake soon along with a sachs sport pressure plate and a ACT 6puck disc. Then over the winter it will get the arpstud/cometic gasket treatmant. then the rest of srpinf i will begin parting together stuff. Im taking my time because there are some tuning breakthroughs coming up for our cars. Good things come to those who wait.:tup:
seriously though. 3.91 lsd swap. BEST MOD EVAR.lol car feels like its fast now. I keep forgetting to turn off my godamn traction control every time i go to do a drift. My car keeps pwning me.
i’ve done a few things…but i am gonna pay off some debt towards the car before i do anything else
yea, Im gunna try to save money by making sure i hit the right gears every time i shift.
I kid I kid
LOL…i hate you
if one of you becomes fast… that will make 1 in WNY right?
1 Turbo BMW? No, there is a kid who goes to RIT who has a Turbo e36 M3. Mine is an ///M5 motor, which doesnt have a chassis yet. Pretty sure there is another turbo M3 in rochester too.
:word:
but i believe jack said fast, not just turbo. They probably have cheasy AA stage 1 turbo kits with a measily 350whp.
Yeah, I know of a lot of cars with turbos, but these guys are actually quick.
Since this is BMW talk, I have a question for you guys as well… and anyone else who wants to chime in:
1998 740iL
132k on chassis
50k on motor (old motor blew timing chain?belt?
It is a friend of the family, some chick.
Bought it at auction for like 10k, the motor blew like 2k later.
Car is too big for her.
I can get it for 12-13k I may be able to talk them down, but they are still biting the bullet for the motor replacement.
Car is super clean, engine bay looks great, doesn’t make any extra noise, all gadgets appear to work perfectly.
Obv it is a sweet car and I fell in love immediately. What should I look for? Is it worth $12,000??
Black on black, stock everything.
Please let me know ASAP guys… before she hits something.
Thanks,
Jack
901-1081
EDIT - Please call tonight if you have anything you want to say while I have them here… it’d be nice to throw them an offer so I have a nice ride to cruise around in. Next thread will be : What wheels to buy?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
yea turbociv’s bimmer pulls b16 del sol’s all day long
he just needs to get it sideways more…
The 740 engines had bad carbon deposit issues in the headwork IIRC, also electrical nightmares. But cool cars. I know a guy who’s doing a twin turbo LS engine in one 
Yeah, that’s the way to solve the engine problems… just throw an LS1 in there and drive it.
Cool to see some nice Bimmers will be around town…
yes they are neat cars but id stear clear of that mess. Not unless you have deep pockets.
